Trail Overview

This trail is part of the Historic Mining District north of Creede. It takes you by the Phoenix Park Mill site, along with a few old mining sites. The road goes from about 8600 feet to 10,600 feet elevation and there is no cell service on some sections. There are no real obstacles, so it is mostly a graded dirt road, but there are some narrow spots and a few steep hills.
